 Replying to [comment:42 vbraun]:
 > I'm only using assertions to ensure the following contract holds: `spkg-
 install` completes successfully only if the relevant atlas configure/make
 completed with `rc==0`

 I think (IMHO but I might be wrong) that assertions should be used only in
 a situation where an assertion being false indicates a bug in the program.
 If `rc != 0` in `spkg-install`, that is an ordinary error condition, not a
 bug in the `spkg-install` script.
